749 A Woman’s Thoughts Are Impossible to Fathom
Qiao Zhuang originally wanted to go back to the village to cause trouble for Qiao Qiang. On his way back, he passed by the village entrance and heard someone say that Qiao Qiang, who never believed in ghosts and evil spirits, had bought more than 100 dollars worth of paper money and gold and silver offerings. He had loaded a truck full of the offerings and went to the back mountain, kowtowing while burning them. He looked extremely pious while doing that.
Qiao Qiang had relied on his own strength to fight on the battlefield for so many years. It was surprising that he believed in such things when he became old.
Coupled with what Qiao Fu had said to them, could it be that Qiao Fu had really offended something supernatural…
Qiao Zhuang shook his head forcefully. These were stories that people told to scare children. How could he believe what these people in the village said? That would be simply crazy!
Wang Qin had been staying at home during this period of time and did not go to work in the village at all. Although she said that she had been too tired from taking care of Qiao Fu recently and wanted to rest at home, she actually just wanted to lie low.
Everyone knew that she and Qiao Mei had always been at odds, and now Qiao Fu had failed to harm Qiao Qiang and ended up crippled instead. Qiao Gui had already told her everything in detail after he came back from getting money at Qiao Mei’s house. Qiao Mei had already gone to Chen Hu from the armed forces department and asked him to gather evidence, but these people had not come to look for them after more than half a month.
There were only two possibilities. The first possibility was that Qiao Mei did not manage to find any evidence. This matter was exactly as Qiao Fu had said, and it was caused by supernatural beings. The second possibility was that Qiao Mei had found evidence but did not want to expose it and was waiting for an opportunity to wipe out their entire family.
The latter was more like Qiao Mei’s style.
“What has your father asked you to do recently?” Wang Qin asked.
Qiao Gui looked at Wang Qin impatiently. Wang Qin could ask this question 800 times a day. Every time, Qiao Gui had to give a precise answer, the kind that had to be verbatim.
It was as if she had gone crazy and was possessed.
“What exactly are you doing? You ask me so many times every day. It’s so annoying! My father didn’t tell me anything today! He just went to see eldest brother!” Qiao Gui said with a frown.
Wang Qin patted her chest and felt relieved. Fortunately, she did not ask Qiao Gui to take revenge on Qiao Mei’s family. She must quickly raise the money and find a way to live in the county city.
Originally, she thought that although Qiao Zhuang’s family was the village tyrant, they never did anything outrageous. She was also a person who liked to take advantage of others. With such in-laws backing her up, her life had been smooth-sailing over the past few years.
However, she never dreamed that Qiao Zhuang would ask Qiao Fu and Qiao Gui to kill someone! They could go to jail!
She was a woman and did not understand anything, but she knew one thing. A life for a life!
If Qiao Gui went to jail, she would not be able to survive with the children in this wolf den of a house. That would be like killing her. Now that everyone in the family was leaving one by one, she had to make plans early.
“Let’s bring the children to the county city,” Wang Qin suddenly said to Qiao Gui as she lay on the brick bed.
Qiao Gui looked at Wang Qin in confusion, not knowing what was wrong with her again. She was still wide awake in the middle of the night. Now, not only was Qiao Zhuang torturing him in this house, but even Wang Qin was acting crazy.
“Where can we go? We don’t even know anyone in the county city, so why are we going to that unfamiliar place? Besides, we don’t have any money and our household register is in the village. I heard from others that Li Gui didn’t get any food stamps in the city when she was there. How are we going to survive?” Qiao Gui said.
Wang Qin fell into deep thought. She had only thought about going to the city to earn money, but she had not thought about the issue with food stamps. She did not know about many things, but she knew that if she continued to stay here, something bad would happen sooner or later.
They were dead either way. Wang Qin covered her face and cried. For the first time in her life, she felt afraid that she would lose her husband and her children would get killed by Qiao Zhuang. Her daughter would end up like Qiao Yu, or even worse.
“What can we do… I don’t want to be here anymore…” Wang Qin cried aggrievedly.
Qiao Gui quickly pulled Wang Qin into his arms and asked her to lower her voice so that she would not wake the children up. He did not understand what Wang Qin was worried about at all. He did not do anything and Qiao Zhuang did not say anything. Why was she crying like this?
A woman’s thoughts were impossible to fathom! He could not figure it out at all.
“Alright, alright, don’t cry. I’m not dead and I won’t be disabled like my eldest brother. Why are you crying? What’s there to cry about, go to sleep quickly,” Qiao Gui said as he patted Wang Qin’s head.
